West Hartford Puppy Center has a great selection of fish. Aquatic Wildlife in Manchester/South Windsor has some good fish/plants. If you want to take a little ride, Uncle Ned's Fish Farm in Milton MA is awesome.

I've found the best place to get plants is through friends, and these forums.

I have crypts that need to be thinned out. I also have some baby swords on the way...

Hey thanks Vancat

Don't even have a tank yet Gave my last one (Africans) away 3 years ago before I moved to my new house. Didn't want to deal with moving it with all the other stuff I had to do back then. The last plant tank I had was probably back in the early 90's. I had pretty good success and didn't really know all that much about it........just put 2 strip lights on and the plants grew like crazy. I've been checking on Craigslist daily for a aquarium deal. I really wanted to try the Walstad low tech planted tank. The plant prices on this forum seem pretty hard to beat.
